Full details

It serves as an ideal layering piece for hacking and trail riding, offering a flattering, rider-specific fit through breathable, fluorescent materials. While it excels at safety and ease of use, it is a lightweight garment primarily meant for layering rather than providing heavy thermal insulation.

FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
The gilet is designed for breathability and visibility. It is not marketed as a waterproof garment, so consider wearing a waterproof layer underneath if riding in heavy rain.
Can I wear this for activities other than horse riding?
Yes, the high-visibility features make it suitable for cycling, walking, or any outdoor activity where being seen is important.
How do I determine my size?
The gilet follows standard equestrian sizing. Use the adjustable waist fasteners to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit over your standard riding attire.
Does the 3M reflective material require batteries?
No, the 3M reflective panels are passive reflectors that shine brightly when light sources, such as car headlights, hit them.
Is the gilet machine washable?
Yes, it is generally machine washable on a gentle cycle. Always check the internal care label and wash inside-out to protect the reflective strips.
Troubleshooting
Reflective panels appear dull after washing
Avoid using fabric softeners or bleaching agents, which can degrade reflective coatings; stick to mild detergent and air drying.
Gilet feels too tight when layered over bulky jackets
Loosen the side waist fastenings to their maximum extent; if discomfort persists, ensure the gilet size is appropriate for your winter layering system.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, utilize the adjustable waist fastenings to tighten or loosen the gilet depending on whether you are wearing a thin base layer or a thicker fleece underneath. The gilet is compatible with most riding apparel and is designed to maintain its shape even when layered. For care, it is recommended to follow the manufacturer's garment care label. Generally, to maintain the integrity of the 3M reflective panels and the fluorescent fabric, avoid harsh detergents and extreme heat drying. Washing inside-out on a gentle cycle and air drying will help preserve the reflective quality and the lifespan of the fabric.
